A case report of a de novo tandem duplication (5p) (p14 → pter)

Abstract: The case described in this paper represents on the basis of cytogenetic evidence, the first reported example of a de novo tandem dup (5p) (p 14 --L pter). Clinical changes were minimal, unlike previously described cases in which more complex structural chromosomal changes were involved and a phenotype was provisionally attributed to dup(5p) (p14 -* pter). The duplicated segment of minimal effect identified in this case involved more than five eighths of 5p. It is proposed that there is a localised critical seg… Show more

“…This is consistent with previous reports where correlations between the 5p duplicated segment and the phenotype have been proposed. A review of the literature shows that duplications distal to 5p13.3 [Chia et al, 1987; Cervera et al, 2005] result in significantly fewer physical anomalies than duplications of the critical region 5p11‐p13.1 [Lorda‐Sánchez et al, 1997; Avansino et al, 1999], which cause more severe manifestations including macrocephaly, dolichocephaly, facial anomalies, and abnormalities of the heart, kidneys, intestine and central nervous system, as well as intellectual disability. Recurrent respiratory infections have also been described for almost all those affected with proximal trisomy 5p.…”

“…Partial or complete duplication of the short arm of chromosome 5 is a rare but well‐recognized chromosomal abnormality. Since it was first described in 1964 [Lejeune et al, 1964], further cases have been reported with different phenotypes that depend on the chromosomal region involved [Chia et al, 1987]. Genotype–phenotype correlation studies have shown that the duplication of the relatively small critical segment 5p10‐p13.1 causes the most severe phenotype, and has been proposed as the critical region for trisomy 5p syndrome [Lorda‐Sánchez et al, 1997; Avansino et al, 1999; D'Amato et al, 2002; Loscalzo et al, 2008].…”

“…Partial 5p trisomy is usually due to partial duplications inherited from translocation or inversion carriers and, less frequently, due to insertions or marker chromosomes (Lorda-Sanchez et al 1997;Avansino et al 1999). The patients may show duplications distal to 5p13.3 (Chia et al 1987;Webb et al 1988;Zenger-Hain et al 1993), complete 5p duplication (Reichenbach et al 1999;Velagaleti et al 2000;Grosso et al 2002), and duplication of the 5p proximal region encompassing 5p10 to 5p13 (Lorda-Sanchez et al 1997;Avansino et al 1999;D'Amato Sizonenko et al 2002). Literature shows that patients with duplications distal to 5p13.3 (Baialardo et al 2003;Cervera et al 2005) present a relatively milder phenotype compared to complete 5p duplications (Reichenbach et al 1999;Velagaleti et al 2000;Grosso et al 2002) and to duplications of the proximal regions 5p11-5p13.2, suggesting a critical region between 5p10 and 5p13.1 (Lorda-Sanchez et al 1997;Avansino et al 1999;D'Amato Sizonenko et al 2002).…”

“…Duplications involving complete 5p or a small segment between 5p10-5p13.1 usually manifest in a more severe phenotype; thus, this region was proposed to be the critical region for Trisomy 5p [9-11]. Meanwhile, trisomy of regions distal to 5p13 mainly causes mild and indistinct features [12]. A combination of terminal deletion and inverted duplication of 5p is infrequent in literature.…”
